Did anyone recently got their H1B approved through regular processing? If yes, can you Please post your receipt, approval dates?

I have applied for H1B transfer through regular processing, and I have May 21 as the receipt date. USCIS website states that as of July 20 they were processing cases that had a receipt date of May 16. I also heard that contrary to what USCIS website says, these days its taking almost 4 months for H1B's to get approved. How much true is this?

If anyone who got their H1B approved recently can post their receipt, approval dates, it will be very helpful.

Thanks,
Ram
 
H-1 Approval Time

xyzram,

A lot of my friends as well as my attorney is claiming that it usually takes somewhat 60 odd days (2 months) to get the approval. I am not sure how much of it is true. Lets just hope for the best.

Does anybody have different views or experiences ?
Kindly share with us.

Which service center?
 
Reference

xyzram,
Have a look at the following URL :-
http://www.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=179852

Go through it. You will see examples wherein people have received their H-1 in approx. ~ 50 days.

I also had a look at the Processing dates posted on July 20th, which claims that the current applications that are being worked on date May 16th, but in the examples above you will see that people who have a receipt date of May 23rd and EVEN June 8th have received their approvals.

A bit confusing and erratic ?

great guru,
Any insight or experience on this matter ?

Thanks Amit for your postings. I heard that our H1B files get processed in bunches by different people. So it also depends on whom our file goes to. From the responses to this posting, it seems there are not many people who are waiting for their H1B's.

Well, it will be great if others(waiting for H1B approval OR who got their H1B approved) can post their receipt/approval dates.

Thanks,
Ram
 
I have come across multiple people with receipt date in April, 2005 and who are still waiting for their H1B's to get approved. So there are some cases that are getting approved fast, and some that are getting delayed!!! for whatsoever reason.

Anybody else has some idea on how long is it usually taking for processing of the case ?
 
Amit_drummer:

Have you got further info on the time of H1B processing recently?

I post one thread on the delay of receipt notice but no one cares. INS receive the filing on Aug.4, but till today(Aug.24th) I didn't geta receipt notice.

I'm in deep worry if the mail has been lost.

I called 1-800-375-5283, the response varied:
Last Monday, the lady check for me and tell me 'no record';
Last Friday, the man told me call again after 30 days;
Today, another lady told me as a beneficiary, I have no right to check the status.

My attoney simply said they cannot control that.

Just get mad.

How can I solve the riddle?

Secondly, I would like to thank you for updating me on your case status as well as for posting the URL, which shares different H-1 approval rates.

May you have all the best wishes for the road ahead.
 
Processing Time Update ?

Can anybody share the latest trend for the H-1 approval processing time ?

Anybody in a particular with a receipt date of July' 2005 ?, Have you heard anything from the CSC ?
 
H-1 Approvals Trend

Can anybody update me on the latest processing time trend, specially for people who have the Notice of Receipt Date in the month of July ?

As of August 18th, the USCIS website claims to be working on cases with Notice of Receipt Date in the month of June; but what is the latest, can somebody please update me on this issue ?

If you are looking for a strong and a very professional company to join and to file your Green card through Perm, let me know. Generally labour and I140 gets cleared in couple of months. 180 already approved in a very short duration.
